Begs the question: Is the reason for the switch:
A) to disconnect the house in order to not run down the batteries, or
B) to disconnect the batteries for safety or some other reason, while connected to shore power.
For me, the benefit comes from A. I haven't run into B yet.
Even if the switch is on the battery side, you could still have other loads on the battery. A trailer would still have jacks, slides, breakaway switch, LP alarm, and stereo clock. A MH may have some things too.
You might need a switch right at the battery post to cut off everything. For help in remembering, you could run a wire from there to a big lamp above the rig's doorway which is on when the switch is closed :)
